Patch 1.3 arrives and it is strangely familiar

June 26, 2012 by lonomonkey

I hate dailies.

I’m not going to lie and pretend I think they are great even if for a guild like Snark Side who’s interested in progression they are useful. In fact, they are pretty much a necessity, you need to farm those dailies/weeklies so you can get Valor points, er… I mean Black Hole commendations, and get some sweet gear.

For me, this is what patch 1.3 brings. There’s a dungeon finder in there and some other neat stuff but all I can see is the return of the dreaded dailies. I’ve already posted elsewhere why I hate them but suffice to say it’s repetitive content that the game forces on me and if I don’t do them I feel like I’m letting the team down. I don’t like that very much.

So sorry for the gloomy post, maybe dailies “à la Old Republic” will be fine but I’m dubious.

    Welcome to the farming of Ops and Hardmodes for those coveted Black Hole comms. I agree; I hate dailies with a passion, but at least I’ll be able to see some of the content I’ve missed out on so far (like Kaon, Lost Island, False Emperor). Yay!

    But damn I hate dailies.

    You can skip the Belsavis, Illum and Black Hole dailies if you like doing Ops and Flashpoints now. The black hole and daily commendations from the instance finder will give another option for gearing up.

    Yet another “busywork” patch to keep people on the mindless subscription treadmill that SWTOR has become. Not a single creative idea left in the EA/Bioware team. I really expected far more from Bioware than this nonsense.
